Bug ID: 1860412
Summary: New version of Droid Sans causes problems in Firefox
and Thunderbird GUIs
Product: Fedora
Version: 32
Status: NEW
Component: google-droid-fonts
Assignee: nicolas.mail...@laposte.net
Reporter: skon...@redhat.com
QA Contact: extras...@fedoraproject.org
CC: fonts-bugs@lists.fedoraproject.org,

Target Milestone: ---
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
For years I am using Droid Sans 11 as my GUI font in my desktop. With recent
update the text in Firefox and Thunderbird gained weird padding, causing wasted
space, weird alignment issues, sometimes slight text cut-off at bottom
(Thunderbird).
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
google-droid-sans-fonts-20200215-3.fc32.noarch
Last good: google-droid-sans-fonts-20120715-16.fc31.noarch
How reproducible:
Set Droid Sans 11 (also different size) as a GUI font. See how menus and parts
of GUI looks like, overlaps and behaves. Compare by testing old version of the
package, or different font such as Roboto.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install google-droid-sans-fonts-20200215-3.fc32.noarch
2. Set Droid Sans 11 as default a GUI font
3. Open Thunderbird or Firefox
Actual results:
Weird unnecesarry padding in menus, cut-offs and similar text issues.
Expected results:
No change when compared to old version.
Additional info:
Reproducible in clean XFCE spin VM. Easily fixed by using similar font (Roboto)
or old version of the package, so the problem is in the font package.
